In this chapter, you are going to start an application called LootLogger that keeps an inventory of all your possessions. In the case of a fire or other catastrophe, you will have a record for your insurance company.

So far, your iOS projects have been small, but LootLogger will grow into a realistically complex application over the course of eight chapters. By the end of this chapter, LootLogger will present a list of Item instances in a UITableView, as shown in Figure 9.2.
